Hello again Peter Thanks very much. I've just come across the "Set CoordSys" clause/command from a message from Martin Spiers. And I see this is the complete simple solution. Question: Have you missed out the keyword "table" in the clause, or is it optional for syntax 4 of the clause.
Anyway - a simple solution to a simpleton question - just what I needed :-) Cheers Terry -----Original Message----- From: Peter Horsbøll Møller [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 08 June 2005 22:46 To: Terry McDonnell Subject: RE: MI-L Simpleton's Question Re: Lat/Long and Object Okay, Terry, I can see your point about not going down the ODBC road. Jon, has the right answer, you just need to add the Set CoordSys to specify which coordsys you want the coordsys in.
